Vintage Mother of Pearl Beaded Necklace

Vintage cream mother of pearl (MOP) and grey gold beaded natural shell small choker, approximately 16.5” in length. The necklace features alternating sections of black and cream-colored beads, complemented by small gold-toned beads. The cream-colored beads are identified as mother of pearl, a material derived from the inner layer of mollusk shells. Mother of pearl is valued for its unique luster and iridescence and is often used in jewelry making. The necklace's design incorporates these elements to create a textured and visually appealing piece. The style of the necklace suggests it could be a vintage item, possibly dating back to the mid-20th century, given its materials and construction techniques.
